Figure 1 shows a simple system using comparators to do the level monitoring. The key advantages to using this method are cost and design simplicity. TI’s LM391x can be used as a precision analog ...

How analog signal engineering is performed, in broad strokes. What are the component-selection considerations for new designs? What are VFAs and how are they used? Analog signal engineers specialize ...

How a single silicon chip was designed to be microwave and optical signal-processing engine. The various roles for which this engine can be reconfigured. The performance considerations that were ...

Traditional sonar and radar use an echo-based approach, and have been amazingly successful in sensing and tracking vehicles and objects under water, through the air, or even in space. The principle is ...
